BEST OF THE WEEK

On Saturday, mailmen across the country picked up food donations for the hungry in addition to mail. Now, if you left potato chips, would that count as “junk mail”?

This week, the Pope warned against the misuse of religion for political ends. Yes, that’s very meaningful, coming from Europe’s only surviving THEOCRACY. You are the political leader of a country based entirely on religion! That’s like Fox warning other networks about making too many reality shows.

Wanda Sykes gave the annual comic speech at the White House Correspondents dinner, and compared Rush Limbaugh to a terrorist. Osama bin Laden immediately released a statement: “Hey, we’re not as bad as Limbaugh! That‘s very offensive.”

A new study says snails that use less energy are more likely to live. The quote I liked best from the scientists was: “We could recover the dead because… they didn’t move more than a couple meters each year.” Wow, they could do a study of my uncle Jimmy too.

The prime minister of Pakistan has ordered his military to “eliminate militants and terrorists”. So you mean that wasn’t their job before? Kind of late to the game, aren’t you? Next you’ll be urging the military to “use guns”.

Amy Winehouse had to stop a concert yesterday due to “technical” difficulties. Yes, because she is “technically” a drug addict.

Actress Mia Farrow has now ended her hunger strike in support of Darfur. I know, you were all very worried. The reaction from Darfur was: “You mean, you’re going hungry on purpose!? So the people trying to kill us are crazy AND the people trying to help us are crazy? This is not good.”

Two Americans who chipped off a piece of the Roman Coliseum 25 years ago have now returned the piece with an apology. And apparently they weren’t the only ones. Look at this picture. Almost half of it is gone! They even took the floor! That happened during a party at my house once too.
